is a triathlon world champion in his age group, and recently rowed
across the Pacific Ocean from California to Hawaii unsupported with
his wife at a record speed to raise awareness about healthy
nutrition.

Sami received his Masters in Physics from the Helsinki
University of Technology and MBA from Stanford University. The last
time Sami and I spoke in the podcast How To Maximize Triathlon Success
With Minimal Training Time, we discussed how Sami has a busy
work life that only allows him a maximum of about 12 hours per week
to train, and in that interview, he revealed his secrets,
including:

-What 99% of Ironman triathletes do wrong…

-How a typical week of Sami’s triathlon training
goes…

-Sami’s top swim sessions and strategies (including the use
of a swimming snorkel)…

-How the combination of indoor cycling and a Computrainer can save you
tons of time...

-Sami’s top run workout on the track…

-How Sami uses something called Restwise to track recovery, and what he really
thinks about other training recovery tools…
